When everyone stood for the National Anthem I already started to get teary-eyed, as I always do, but within 20 seconds of the orchestra playing, the entire auditorium began to sing along. It was amazing! Then, after all the graduated were hooded they brought all the military students to the stage for recognition and the to recite the oath. After a few more remarks then entire audience again rose to their feet and applauded these men & women for their dedication for almost a full minute.
We then headed to my Uncle Ralph & Aunt Lovina's house for a small family get together. It was so great to see these relatives that I haven't seen in what seemed like ages...and to celebrate my brother's accomplishments!
